Although accommodations are the responsibility of Synod members, once again this year we have set aside a block of rooms for the evenings of October 24th and 25th at the Days Inn Ottawa Airport, which is located at 366 Hunt Club Rd., a short drive from the St. Elias Centre. The group rate per room is $125 plus taxes and fees for a total of $146.90 (single or double occupancy). The group code for this block is CGADO2 and should be quoted when making reservations to ensure that you receive the special rate. The deadline for reservations is September 30th. Reservations can be made directly with the hotel by calling 1-866-468-4442 (or locally at 613-739-7555) or through Central Reservations at 1-800-DAYS INN.

We look forward to seeing you at Synod!
